Out of curiosity. If I have 24.1 with Org 7.x and to use Org latest
I put that in ~/.emacs.d/<somewhere>, is there some potential
ambiguity/conflict/version-clash/mixup going on if I add that
local dir to the load path? Do I have to use some unknown-to-me
(prepend-to-load-path path)? I know that Vim has ~/.vim/* first in the
path list. What's it for Emacs?
